Fri, 06 Apr 2018 15:01:40 GMTNovus Medical Detox seemed to be the right choice when helping a family member seek the treatment that was needed for his recovery. They seemed compassionate and assisted on getting you in the door with the treatment plan they offered. Admissions Counselor, Paul Weiss is all about the sale of getting you in the door and NOTHING more, once NOVUS failed to treat, we reproached Paul, he was a completely different person and didn’t care. When our family member entered Novus Medical Detox, they left him medically unattended for almost 24 hours, as he was in a fragile state detoxing off of high doses of Heroin. This was very inhumane, especially as a person is attempting to get clean and get their life back. They were approached by the patient and family members multiple times with question of treatment however, it went nowhere. The sad part is this is happening to thousands of individuals every day and it MUST come to an end. After only a few days he left Novus seeking a new detox center because of the lack of medical attention. After we phoned regarding the $5,000 that was put upfront for service and they did NOT return calls and communicate with us, Novus is completely avoiding the situation. I don’t want to see others at such a fragile state experience this type of care. This seems to be an ongoing issue with these types of centers and until people speak out with TRUTH, nothing will change. REPORT COMPANIES LIKE THIS BELOW!

Scammers are capitalizing on the opioid epidemic by marketing phony treatments. The FTC and FDA recently issued a warning to companies that deceptively advertise these treatments.

How this Scam Works:

You see an ad for a product that claims to ease opioid withdrawal symptoms. Many of these phony products claim to be a "miracle cure" with "guaranteed" results. Many brands stress that their pills are "all natural," "organic" and contain vitamins and herbs. For examples, check the FDA's Flickr account of photos of illegal products.

Trying one of these "cures" may seem harmless, but it's more than just a waste of time and money. Using products with unsubstantiated claims can prevent those addicted to opioids from seeking safe and effective treatments.

Tips to avoid this scam:

Be skeptical. Beware of any product making claims like "miracle cure" or "fast results - guaranteed." Many of these treatments that make these bold promises are not FDA-approved.
Find help. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) provides a referral and information service. Consumers can call 1-800-662-HELP (4357) or visit SAMHSA.gov for confidential and free information.
Check with a doctor. Before taking any dietary supplement, ask a health provider about it. Find a list of questions on FDA.gov.
Check with BBB. Visit BBB.org to view the company's BBB Business Profile. Business Profiles include contact information, complaint history, and customer reviews.

Mon, 20 Nov 2017 18:22:09 GMTBefore we get started with my complaint a little information on Dane Robinson and Luke Denton both Arizona Dentist. They were advertising them self as an internationally recognized experts with a long list of certifications and recognitions for doing implants. So my mother and I decided to use them to replace a tooth I had lost.
After my implant was completed I complained to the both of them that it felt loose when I touched with my tongue. They both assured me that it would stop feeling loose in a few weeks after the bone grew around the implant more.
Well it didn’t and finally fell out…
My husband started looking into Dane Robinson and Luke Denton and to our disbelief we found that both Dane Robison and Luke Denton were just general dentist and had no certification , education or experience to represent them self as a specialist and both were reprimanded by the Arizona dental board for this very issue. [continued below]....

[COLOR=#EC1C24 !important]Report Attachments:

[/COLOR]..... The board also ordered them to have the disclaimer on there document/advertisements “ Service provided by an Arizona licensed general dentist” as per the findings of the Dental board they did not comply with adding this disclaimer. Then as we dug into there past more we found that dane robinson had created all the groups that he claimed had certified or recognized him as a specialist, robinson even gave denton a certificate of completion in implantology from the hornbrook national clinical training…. (the Arizona State Dental Board ruled that that neither one was qualified to represent them self as a specialist)
Now for the biggest surprise of all, Luke Denton and Dane Robinson did not use an FDA approved or an industry standard implant or even an implant made by a dental lab…They made it!!
The implant (see attached pictures) was held in by glue! No threads nothing just glue.
Words do not describe the pain of not just multiple surgeries (reconstruction of my jaw, bone graphs, etc) but I work in the beauty industry I had to go to work with my front tooth missing for days while we found a dentists that could get me in quickly…
We even talked with a dentist that told us “Im very familiar with there work, You paid for a Cadillac but got a Yugo” he even went on to say “best business decision I’ve made was opening an office across the parking lot from them, you would be surprised how many of my patients had to have me replace there work”

Dane Robinson claims to be affiliated with…

Then your Dr.'s recommend hospitalization that cost over $1,000 and explain if you do not agree to that service your dog's medical condition can get worst and even fatal. Then i ask if you have a payment plan being i can not afford the $1,000 and i want to help my dog stay alive and you tell me sorry no payment plans all services must be paid in full either by cash or credit. Then I ask your staff of Dr.'s for a letter to put their medical opinion in writing and they refuse to do so or want to change their diagnosis to a less serious condition now that your Dr.'s know it is in writing. My other dog who i love with all of my heart died while under your care. The worst and most horrible part is your staff knows my wife has stage 4 breast cancer and still are putting my family through this disgraceful money making scheme in my opinion. I am never coming back and making sure everyone i know who is a pet owner in our community to STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!

I visited the ER at ******* hospital on 12/**/2016 due to strep throat. I was in the hospital for a total of about 2 hours and received probably about a maximum of 30 minutes of care from one of their Nurses. They billed me 283.00 dollars. I estimated this comes out to about... $566.00 dollars an hour for such a simple diagnosis as strep throat. The hospital has not even billed me yet. I thought I was being reasonable and offered to pay 50 percent of that total amount.

I know that medicaid or a health insurance company would only pay about 100 dollars for this visit. I had no health insurance at the time due to transitioning to another job. They were willing to come down very little in price. I believe their idea is either pay, or we will send this to collections and hurt your credit score. Also, they ended up selling my bill to a collection agency. I was on a pay plan. Luckily I caught it in time before my credit got hit. These people are truly awful. I truly believe they did this in retaliation of filing a complaint to the BBB. They have an "F" grade with them by the way.

Andrea Esposito the office manager told me Dr. Kehoe would give my wife a second biopsy being I explained to her and Dr. Kehoe that my wife was misdiagnosed from our medical team and wanted to make sure surgery was absolutely necessary. Both Andrea and Dr. Kehoe tricked us into paying cash upfront, no receipts. Then when we came in for the procedure that was promised no second biopsy was performed just a consultation that amounted to nothing. We asked for a refund and Dr. Kehoe rudely said refund me for the hour i spent with your wife, WOW really caring doctor don't you think, no refund was given to us basically we were robbed. It turned out my wife needed that second biopsy because after her surgery at another medical institution it was determined that my wife did not have DCIS but she had invasive cancer which was her2 triple negative breast cancer and if more testing was conducted before surgery neo adjunctive therapy which is chemotherapy administered before surgery could have avoided surgery all together and saved my wife's breast. I have pending lawsuits and i am determined to let the Brooklyn community know that Dr. Kehoe and Andrea are running a scam. The worst breast doctor in Brooklyn by far! I don't feel he even deserves to be called a Dr. a scam artist is more appropriate.

The official #1 cause of death in the USA: apparent contradictions in illuminati tactics.

Introduction - added Feb 1, 2017
Finally, at the end of the show alias before the climax of Global Genocide and the proclamation of Global Slavery:
Illuminati media finally has an article about it, served not as undeniable but rather only as highly probable while packed as illuminati joke: see the photo introducing the article captioned "A traditional full English breakfast of sausages, chips, baked beans, bacon, black pudding and toast is pictured at 'Enough To Feed an Elephant' cafe in London".

Reminder of Last Prophet's words from Sep 2013:

Why don't Illuminati conceal that smoking causes heart disease?
Because they make sure that the way the information is served doesn't prevent youth from start smoking, which is the audience that counts: hardly any adult will ever become a smoker.
As for the rest, the information will have no effect in more than 99% of the cases, alias once you are an addict, no matter if you are an adult or not.

Eating more calories earlier in the day and consuming less food at night
It's almost as important as avoid inhaling smoke from cigarettes in lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Why? Because we don't process sugars as well at night as we do during the day.
Why? Because God created all forms of life perfect: humans, same as some species of northern owls and unlike barn owls, were meant to be active during the day and to rest at night.

Why not part of education, no headlines in media and your doctor never told you
The main reason for sulfites in every wine is part of the answer.
But the main reason in this case is the same as for glyphosate in every food.

Feb 1, 2017 - Eating more calories earlier in the day and consuming less food at night may also reduce the odds of a heart attack, stroke or other cardiac or blood vessel diseases, according to the scientific statement from the American Heart Association.
"When we eat may be important to consider, in addition to what we eat,"
As many as 30 percent of U.S. adults may routinely skip breakfast, a habit that has become more common in recent years as more people snack throughout the day instead of sitting down for three traditional meals,
When people do eat breakfast daily, they're less likely to have risk factors for cardiovascular disease like high cholesterol and elevated blood pressure.
And people who skip this morning meal are more likely to have risk factors like obesity, poor nutrition and diabetes or high blood sugar.
That's because meal timing may affect health by impacting the body's internal clock.
We may not process sugars as well at night as we do during the day ...https://www.yahoo.com/news/skipping-...194756265.html

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the USA, also for most ethnicities, including African Americans, Hispanics, and whites.
For American Indians or Alaska Natives and Asians or Pacific Islanders, heart disease is second only to cancer.https://www.cdc.gov/heartdisease/facts.htm

Sun, 11 Dec 2016 20:53:08 GMTI personally can speak first hand of what actually goes on at liv plastic Surgery. I worked there for almost a year. Andrew Ress plain and simple is not a good surgeon. Infact, he is a bad surgeon. I am coming forward now because I have heard from too many former staff members , that he permanently disfigured too many patients. This is a FACT: His own staff, would rather PAY another doctor for cosmetic work, than get it for FREE thru him!!! What does that tell you?

While under employment, I know firsthand he forged the patient logs in his operating room in order to pass inspection. This is illegal and he should lose his medical license for doing it. I'm embarrassed to say I kept quite then, as we all did, to keep our jobs. He made employees lie on the witness stand in a civil case in order to keep their job. He also "asked" his patient coordinator to write disparaging remarks about local plastic Surgery Colleagues on Yelp and other review sites. He did it , only to keep his job.

I also know firsthand, the equipment he buys never new. he only buys used equipment that can be faulty and ineffective which leads to scars and burns in most cases. His own wife recently filed for Divorce claiming he was cheating on her with women in the office. Not sure if this is true, however his now ex wife certainly believes it. This man is not only a bad, unethical surgeon, he is a not a person you can trust.

"Dr" Lim Yong Teng or "Dr" YT Lim is a self-claimed doctor who is NOT a medical doctor.
When you ask him for his medical credentials, he will avoid by insisting that he is not a medical doctor.In his presentation, he claims to guarantee cure IF you follow his program.
BIG IF because he even asks you NOT to drink water!

In September 2016, he supplied Colon-Zap oral powder which already expired in July 2016 but his assistant Eddy Sim said it was a mislabel.

Since Lim Yong Teng offers you only a so-called blanket treatment, he does not pre-diagnose your symptoms. Hence, his Colon-Zap oral powder contains ingredients which are likely counter-reactive to your body. Your body can be allergic to ingredients in his Colon-Zap oral powder and his other products.

All the oral intake products at premium prices that Lim Yong Teng sells you do NOT have any regulatory health certification. This does disservice to your body, and you expose yourself to unknown health risks. When your body develops side effects, he will request for your medical report to prove his product defect yet he is NOT a medical doctor, remember?

His real intention is to milk your money. It's all about business.

YOUR BEST SOLUTION IS TO CONSUME ORGANIC FOOD.

Ergo, the logic (albeit flawed) follows: taking pills with tyrosine will increase melanin production.

Tue, 25 Oct 2016 07:30:07 GMTThese soaps, made with fat and glycerin (a clear liquid made by combining water and fat), are preferred by some people with dry or easily irritated skin. However, according to Schoen and Lazar, there is no evidence that they're milder than other soaps, though they're more expensive. Transparent soaps, which can be used on the face or body, also tend to melt quickly and don't lather very well.

Subcutaneous tissue acts both as an insulator, conserving body heat, and as a shock absorber, protecting internal organs from injury. It also stores fat as an energy reserve in the event extra calories are needed to power the body. The blood vessels, nerves, lymph vessels, and hair follicles also cross through this layer.The subcutaneous tissue is the deepest layer of the skin.

Fri, 21 Oct 2016 13:20:44 GMTThere are many reasons why you may still be getting some tan despite diligent use of sunscreen. One likely cause is the fact that even the best of sunscreens still let some sun rays through. A high SPF number is not about better or deeper protection, but only longer protection—an SPF 30 means you can stay in the sun 30 times longer than it would normally take you to get a slight burn. For most skin types that would provide over 18 hours of sun exposure without getting sunburned. That’s impressive, but it is also only a measure of the length of time the protection lasts.
High SPF numbers give the false impression they can provide enhanced protection when that is not the case. A well-formulated sunscreen with an SPF 30 still only protects your skin from about 97% to 98% of the sun’s rays. That means 2% to 3% of the sun’s rays are still getting through, and that can trigger melanin production, the skin’s tanning response. This is especially true for those with darker skin tones or for those who have a lot of previous sun damage, because for them hypermelanin production is more likely to take place.
Here is a chart to give you an idea of the numbers:
SPF 2 50% UV protection
SPF 4 70% UV protection
SPF 8 88% UV protection
SPF 15 94% UV protection
SPF 30 97% UV protection
SPF 50 98% UV protection
SPF 70 98% UV protection
Further, most people misunderstand or have poor information about how to get the best sun protection. Please review the “Applying Sunscreen” and “Sun Strategy” sections in this chapter. It is essential to apply sunscreen liberally and to be sure that the active ingredients on the label include one of the UVA-protecting ingredients: avobenzone, butyl methoxydibenzylmethane, Tinosorb, ecamsule (Mexoryl), titanium dioxide, or zinc oxide.There are many reasons why you may still be getting some tan despite diligent use of sunscreen.

Sat, 15 Oct 2016 11:49:16 GMTTanning pills come in two forms: those that contain tyrosine and those that contain a concentrated dose of beta-carotene. Let’s start with tyrosine. The FDA has debunked tyrosine as a tanning accelerator. The marketing pitch is that tyrosine is needed by your body to produce melanin, which is a true statement. Ergo, the logic (albeit flawed) follows: taking pills with tyrosine will increase melanin production. It just isn’t true—only exposure to UVA or UVB sun rays can activate tyrosine and other elements in skin to initiate (or trigger) melanin production, the pigment we see as a tan.

The FDA reports in their Office of Cosmetics and Colors Fact Sheet (June 27, 2000), “Lotions and pills marketed as ‘tanning accelerators’ generally contain tyrosine (an amino acid), often in combination with other substances. Tanning accelerators are marketed with the claim that they enhance tanning by stimulating and increasing melanin formation. FDA has concluded that these ‘tanning accelerators’ are actually unapproved drugs, and the agency has issued warning letters to several manufacturers of these products. There are no scientific data showing that they work; in fact, at least one study has found them ineffective.” Companies that sell these types of tyrosine pills or lotions play on the fact that tyrosine is an amino acid that is a precursor for the production of melanin. Yet no research supports the oral consumption of tyrosine as having any effect on the color of skin. In another report, the FDA stated “In fact, an animal study reported a few years ago demonstrated that ingestion
or topical application of tyrosine has no effect on [melanin production]. The [FDA] has … issued warning letters to several major manufacturers of these products (Source: www.fda.gov/ora/inspect_ref/igs/cosmet.html).

Fri, 14 Oct 2016 06:38:12 GMTAll skin types can benefit from exfoliating but those who have oily or blemish-prone skin, or clogged pores can benefit significantly. Blackheads or blemishes can occur if the oil gland produces too much sebum. Sebum is a soft wax that should liquefy when it reaches the surface of the pore, spreading a thin, imperceptible protective layer over the skin. But when too much sebum is produced, the liquefying process can get backed up. Add to that problem a tendency for skin cells that should be naturally sloughing off to instead fall inside the pore lining and get stuck. The more skin cells that build up in the oil gland, the more oil will be held back from flowing easily out of the pore (the pore is the exit path for oil), and the result can be a blackhead or, when the right bacteria that cause inflammation are present, an acne lesion.
Often with oily skin, cells that should be shedding on a regular, daily basis are being held back. One thing that keeps cells from sloughing off is that self-same oil (sebum). The oil works as an adhesive, preventing the shedding skin cells from going where they are supposed to go—off the face. One way to keep pores from getting clogged is to help skin cells shed as freely as possible so they don’t get trapped inside the pore. The more you keep skin cells exfoliating in a normal manner, the less cell debris can fill up the pore.
Another issue for oily skin with clogged pores is that the oil gland itself has a skin lining (epithelial lining). For some reason, this lining inside the pore can become thickened or misshapen and choke off and block the flow of oil out of the pore. Using exfoliants that can exfoliate the lining of the pore, thus restoring a more natural shape, can encourage a normal flow of oil and eliminate clogged pores.All skin types can benefit from exfoliating but those who have oily or blemish-prone skin, or clogged pores can benefit significantly.

Thu, 13 Oct 2016 10:00:59 GMTAlmost everything can influence skin type, which is why it can be so tricky to attribute a single skin type to what you see on your face. Both external and internal elements can and do impact the way your skin looks and feels. To effectively evaluate your skin and determine the correct skin-care routine, here are some of the factors that need to be considered:
Internal Influences:
• Hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause, menstrual cycle, and more all cause skin conditions to fluctuate from oily to breakouts, skin discolorations, and dryness)
• Skin disorders (rosacea, psoriasis, dermatitis, with each one posing its specific concerns)
• Genetic predisposition of skin type (oily versus dry, prone to breakouts, sensitive skin)
• Smoking (cause of necrotic skin that cannot be corrected by skin-care products)
• Medications you may be taking (some birth-control pills can increase oily skin and breakouts while other types can actually improve the appearance of acne)
• Diet (there is research showing a diet high in antioxidants and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids can improve the appearance of skin)Almost everything can influence skin type, which is why it can be so tricky to attribute a single skin type to what you see on your face.

Thu, 06 Oct 2016 12:35:48 GMTI was very disappointed with the care of the nursing staff there and I can't understand how they could possibly have a 5 star rating. When we would use the call light someone would usually come in within 5 minutes to find out what was needed, turn off the light and quickly forget about her.
My mother fell out of bed twice and was injured even after I asked them to please keep an eye on her because she was trying to get out of bed.
I felt they didn't want her to get better and wean her off the ventilator or feeding tubes in order to just keep her there forever and collect money from the insurance companies.
The only good thing I can say was that I liked Elise in speach therapy and the staff in physical therapy. The problem was that the doctors and staff were very slow to take their requests and recommendations.
My mother's progress completely declined while there because they just kept increasing her medications to keep her calm a sedate.
After her second fall I moved her to a new center and her health is improving again after just one week. It is giving me hope that she will be able to come home again.

Slick website so many crappy videos I watched about this place. Classic rope a dope scam I should've checked out the facility ahead of time for my 22-year-old son I just trusted the reputation from Google but now that I see and I've heard things from other parents I can't believe how such a sucker. I haven't seen my son in three months now I don't know where he is but it was literally three days after spoiling him and what not but I spent a Ton of money and then absolutely backfired that maybe it was too late. I was promised a lot of things and he fell short pretty hard and fast.
I fell for them hard and fast now my credit is ruined and my son is still not clean.

Be careful of reviews of Carrier Clinic Inpatient Rehab drug rehab you will see 96% of them are lies.
I kept in contact with a few people and believe me they are not cured and they all want to be.

Isn't it their job. All they did was just give me more pills which I found completely ironic. But whatever. The only reason I'm still clean is that my Dad paid for this and the guilt of that supersedes my addiction. I wouldn't say that I would recommend this to my worst enemy but i'm seriously conflicted over the whole scenario. It seemed like I was just a sheep or a cow and a herd there. The only the only attention I got was when I was screaming and I had to deal with security. I screamed a lot. Nice facility horrible attention.
